I really love the design approach of NORD, “Streets nowadays have become generic and we face the danger of having every city in Britain looking all too familiar”. I think it is safe to say this trend is not only happening in Britain but everywhere in some form in the US.

NORD are architects who engage with the world outwith their own discipline. The practice takes great inspiration from the UK’s legacy of ‘making things’. Streets nowadays have become generic and we face the danger of having every city in Britain looking all too familiar. This understanding and passion for materials, technological innovation, for detail, craftsmanship, texture and pattern is something, which underpins the work of NORD.
